I usually get my period every 3-4 months. About a year and a half ago I had lost 30 lbs which made them more regular and I found myself pregnant. It ended in a miscarriage at 8 weeks and I put the 30 lbs back on plus more I'm sure. However I just had my period about 5 weeks ago and I started what I thought was was another period but got much lighter. Weird for me because like I said its usually 3-4 months between any bleeding. Just wondering if anyone knows what could be going on. Thanks!

    u can go on a pill that will regulate your periods so the come at the same time every month it could be that you have an hormonal imbalance

      maybe i should have said that I do have PCOS, so definitely a hormone imbalance, but the only solution my doctor has is birth control, which makes my periods painful and grueling

      ah i see what i would do is go to a doctors to double check that its the pcos thats caused the extra bleeding as some vaginal infections etc can cause bleeding between periods if you miscarried quite recently then u should get checked out to be on the safe side

      some women have a period then at about two weeks after have a very light bleed due to ovulation that could also b a possibility but certainly if its not normal for you then u should be seen by someone
